Anyone for Green Tea?

The World Cup and Wimbledon have come and gone and the summer of sport has only just begun up in Glasgow – as this year’s Commonwealth Games are now in full swing!

John Lewis is over the moon to serve as “Official Department Store Provider”, and to celebrate their involvement they’ve enlisted Pretty Green Events to create ‘Tea on the Green’, a space where the people of Glasgow can sit back, have a cuppa and enjoy the games in signature John Lewis style.

Of course, all the beautiful furniture, crockery, soft furnishings and, indeed, everything else, were from John Lewis, providing guests with the opportunity to experience and enjoy the products in a very real way not possible on the high street.

In keeping with our love of all things green, the events team designed a pop-up garden right in the heart of Royal Exchange Square where Glaswegians can relax and cheer on team Scotland on our large outdoor screen.

Aside from the games, visitors can feast their eyes on our life size athletes which have been custom-made entirely from John Lewis products.

Oh and in case you were worried about game-time snacking – they’ve got that covered too (no, not deep fried Mars bars!). While revellers enjoy the games, they have been indulging in an extensive, freshly prepared afternoon tea. With so much excitement surrounding the Games, John Lewis have once again ensured you can have your cake and eat it too!
